Looks a lot like the part of my home that I'm caging, except I'm not getting the cage past my bedroom windows to the end of the house. Just the concrete there. My cage will stop to where your broom is, with screen door on that side. I also chose the white like you have rather than the bronze.

Looks great, Tinker. I also like the line of bricks along the edge to keep the grass off the driveway. I see all kinds of stuff I like when looking at other's beautiful yards.

This is very helpful, as I have T & D starting my cage next week and the foreman recommended acrylic so the rain won't pool up around the cage. On the other hand my sister did not use acrylic, she had gone with another company 2 years ago, and chose to DIY with a medium tan paint and it looks great. I haven't heard her mention any water pooling, probably because hers has a roof over everything. Mine will be 2/3 exposed, similar to Mcnuke but just 9ft straight back.
